Charlie was a champ and could nap just about anywhere the stroller went or Mommy was. It remind us of Dr. Seuss. Can Charlie sleep on a plane, on a train, on a bus, on a boat, on a funicular, on a bike? Yep! Enjoy.
Day 10 – PARIS Part Deux
Today we went on the “Tour de Paris”. We scheduled a bike riding tour, but didn’t really research how long it would be or where it was going. As it turned out, it was a very comprehensive tour around the sights in the center of Paris and lasted 3.5 hours. Continue Reading
Day 9 – PARIS- Happy Birthday Charles!
Today’s trip to Paris started like most of our train travel, where our train car was on the train, but off limits. So we needed to go find another place to “squat” on the train. Luckily we found 5 seats relatively close together and only one of them were claimed Continue Reading
